And secondly, a set of issues which are driven by this distinction. Edmon Chung: Okay. (Bart Bartholme): It’s probably it’s reshaping, say, the what you’ve included here in this document. But, say, that, so that would be the first step. And that would also help the JIG to move forward as well to really focus on the common issues. Edmon Chung: Okay, so it seems to me that Number 2 and 3 may be somewhat separate. (Bart Bartholme): Yeah. Edmon Chung: And Number 1 and 4 are common. (Bart Bartholme): It’s (Bart). Yeah. Edmon Chung: The issues themselves are common. (Bart Bartholme): Yeah. Edmon Chung: They are issues that need to be considered. (Bart Bartholme): Yeah. Edmon Chung: How it needs to be addressed may, you know, for 1 and 4 may have to split, but for 2 and 3 - I mean, for 1 and 4, there... (Bart Bartholme): And that’s completely something for the JIG to look into. Yeah. Edmon Chung: Right.

ICANN Moderator: Gisella Gruber-White 07-06-10/7:00 am CT Confirmation # 3015150 Page 15 (Bart Bartholme): And maybe some recommendations to the others, but that’s up to the JIG. But, say, as a first step is, say, look we distinguish these, as a JIG, we distinguish these two sets of issues. Edmon Chung: Okay. (Bart Bartholme): Flowing from the identified issues. Edmon Chung: Okay. Yep, I think that’s a good approach. That makes it clearer for people when they consider. Yeah. Okay, we’ll - I can definitely implement that structural change to the document. Back to the substance of Issue 1. (Bart Bartholme): Yeah. Edmon Chung: I wonder if anyone has any thoughts or additions to ways to address this particular issue of confusing with single-character and actually two-character ASCII TLDs which are reserved? Okay, hearing none. Well, again, this is really a document to really to try to solicit more input, so and did somebody want to speak? Woman: I actually would like to ask you to repeat your question, or repeat... Edmon Chung: Repeat? Okay, no problem. Woman: Yeah. Edmon Chung: Okay, so I was going through the Issue Number 1 and Issue Number 1 is the possible confusion the sort of single-character ASCII TLD string. Woman: Right.
